This week on Sanjay Gupta MD, Sanjay reports on a new study to
treat severe complex post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) with MDMA – ecstasy
– coupled with talk therapy. Dr. Sanjay Gupta was the first to report on
psychiatrist Michael Mithoefer’s groundbreaking approval of his first study
using MDMA to treat PTSD… and now Gupta is getting exclusive access to
Mithoefer’s patients & therapy sessions, allowing for a closer look at MDMA
therapy & whether the promise is real. Also, Sanjay explains how you
can extend your life expectancy by eliminating meat from your diet this one
particular day of the week.

Every
19 minutes someone dies of a drug overdose in America. That U.S. Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) statistic refers to legal and illegal
drug use, but most overdose deaths are due to legal prescription drugs.
CNN chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta interviews former
President Bill Clinton about the death of a son of a friend. The
father and brother of that young man speak movingly about their loss and hopes
to educate other families facing the problem of prescription drug misuse.
Dr. Gupta also speaks with a survivor, and takes viewers to the front lines of
the crisis – riding along with paramedics, interviewing emergency room doctors,
and listening to panicked calls to a poison response center – witnessing
first-hand, the too-often deadly consequences of drug overdoses.

THE NEXT LIST – Sunday 2:00PM – 2:30PM

This week The Next List profiles Max Little,
applied mathematician and project director of the Parkinson’s
Voice Initiative. Little's bold idea is this: What if
doctors could detect Parkinson’s Disease simply by the sound of your voice?
He’s close to proving just that. Little says he can determine if a person
has Parkinson's simply if a person says "ahhhhhh" into a phone for 10
seconds. You don't have to have symptoms for it to work. The magic of the
diagnosis is in the algorithms.
